Carmichael Engineering Ltd. is one of my biggest supporters here in Montreal. Judie Fletcher-Fowler is “curator” of the Carmichael art collection, and she’s done a fantastic job! If you ever get a chance to visit their offices, take it!

Here’s part of the “Gordon Collection” at Carmichael’s head office.

Judie Fowler-Fletcher is pleased as punch with the commissioned architectural portrait of the newly renovated Carmichael headquarters. (Yes, I finished the painting days before shoulder surgery!)

“Duane has developed a unique and fascinating approach to city landscapes… nothing less than stunning and imposing.”
– Kimberly Hains

“Duane … creates drawings where we could almost feel the lives of its inhabitants through those massive structures because of the lights he puts in them. Duane… sees beyond things. Ask him about his journey into his paintings and drawings and you will find a man with a great sense of humanity.”
– Sophie Blondin

“I have seen most if not all of Duane’s original art work and I love it all. His passion for his subject is always striking. It seems inevitable that Duane’s artistic talents will one day be most sought-after and recognized nationally.”
– Laila Beaudin
